[edit] Better image?

Doesn't the Software Update screen look a little dated? It appears to be a screenshot with an OSX custom theme (UNO) installed. Can soeone post a screnshot in it's orginal OSX glroy?

"Software update" is a generic term for a file, code, procedure, etc., that upgrades a previous version, release, "patch," or other instance of software to a newer form.

I don't see why this should be a separate article regarding Apple's particular way of implementing this. At most there should be a disambiguation with a link to Apple Software Updates.

The current "patch" article is inadequate to the purpose because patches are only one form of update.

[edit] Move this topic so we can make a more general article also?

Should there be a more general page for the definition if general software updates? I vote we move this page to Software Update(Apple). So that we can provide the more broad definition. Afterall, Apply may make a great product but they aren't the only onesto utilize software updates =) We could even make a discombobulation page.
